5. Restriction of digital recording/printing function

(1) Data printing requires approximately two minutes. Note that when data printing is executed, the trace printing
stops until the printing is finished.
(2) When the chart speed is set to 251mm/H or more, power-on printing, data printing, list printing, and printing
function for other than time line are disabled.
(3) The trace printing executes dot printing with five seconds interval; however, if time printing is executed during
the trace printing, the dot interval may become longer. The dot interval is extended with the inserted printing.
Therefore, this is not abnormal.
(4) Printing is formed with dots of one pin. Therefore, if the power is turned off while characters are being formed,
they cannot be formed correctly. This is not abnormal.

Add a switch and overcurrent protective device (250V,3A) to the feed power source
to prevent an electric shock on wiring. The unit has no replaceable fuse.
Warning
! (2) Connect after the power source is turned OFF
When performing power and input/output wiring, make sure to turn OFF the feed
power source to prevent an electric shock.
2) Separate from strong power circuits

For input/output wiring, avoid adjacency or parallel with strong power circuits such as power lines. Separate
50cm or more for adjacency or parallel.
3) Separate thermocouple input from heat sources

To reduce reference junction compensation errors for thermocouple input, especially separate terminals
from heat sources (heating body). Also, avoid radiation such as direct sunlight.
4) Separate from noise sources

Separate from noise sources as much as possible. Unexpected troubles may occur. If separation from
noise sources cannot be made, implement countermeasures.
Main source Countermeasures

 Electromagnetic switch or others
 Power line with distortion of wave Insert noise filters between power source and input/output
 Inverter terminals. CR filters are commonly used.
 Thyristor regulator

Note 1 Changing interval time only

When you change interval time only, setting is not registered and the previous setting is still effective. In
this case, display “Start time” and move the cursor to the far right and then press the key twice.
When the setting is registered successfully, setting change mark is printed at the right side of chart.
Note 2 Restriction on interval time setting

(1) Periodic data printing cannot be executed in any case at a chart speed of 251mm/H or higher.
(2) There is a restriction on interval time even when chart speed is within the range of 1 to 250mm/H.
This is to avoid overlapping of recordings.
Reference interval time

Chart speed * Shortest interval time Times shown in the left table are for the case of
5mm/H 1 hour 36 minutes or more (01.36) skipping up to two channels (printing two lines).
10mm/H 48 minutes or more (00.48) When three or more channels are skipped, only
20mm/H 24 minutes or more (00.24) one line is required for printing so the interval
40mm/H 12 minutes or more (00.12) time can be half the time shown in the table.
100mm/H 5 minutes or more (00.05)
* Set interval time based on the lowest chart speed of chart speed 1 to 3, regardless of execution chart speed.
<Example> For the case the chart speed 1, 2 and 3 are set to 10, 20 and 40mm/H respectively, and the execution
chart speed is 20mm/H, interval time is set based on 10mm/H which is the lowest of the three speeds.
(3) When a set interval time does not meet condition, will be displayed.
Ref
(See 8-4 “ Calculating the shortest interval”.)
When chart speed is lowered during the process, printing may be executed with a timing of integral
multiple of the set interval time.
